His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1131

Sheryl dialed Duncan's number and told him that she had done what he had asked.

"Good," he replied with a grin.

"I did what you asked. Please give my children back," Sheryl negotiated, feeling uneasy.

As she was waiting for his reply, anxiety drowned her and she couldn't breathe.

"Relax, Mrs. Lu. You will see your children soon," Duncan responded in a lazy tone.

He still hadn't realized what a serious mistake he had made by kidnapping the kids and demanding ransom. He was yet to connect the dots and figure out that what he was doing was a crime punishable by law.

Perhaps he was taking it easy because the kids he had abducted were obedient, and Sheryl had agreed to his conditions too easily.

He got everything he wanted without getting into any trouble so far.

But this wouldn't be over until Vivi received the money.

He had asked Sheryl to put the money in the mall where Vivi used to work.

When they had first met, Vivi was a shopping assistant in a clothing store and Duncan had just returned from abroad. He had gone into the shop to get new clothes and had encountered Vivi there.

He had become a regular at the store after their encounter. As the two often met, he developed a crush on the young girl. Duncan was new in Y City, but Vivi knew the place very well. Even though she was just an assistant in a shop, she was pretty good looking. And as a result, he hang out with her.

He knew that love was not the reason why they chose to be together, and he didn't care.

He knew that Vivi didn't care either.

But somehow, his heart ached when Vivi decided to leave him for someone else.

It was not until Vivi hooked up with another rich man that he realized his real feelings towards her. He was hopelessly in love with her, even though he knew that she had only agreed to go out with him for his money.

The one who was more invested in a relationship was always the loser.

Duncan admitted that he had lost the game.

But he hated to lose Vivi that way. He couldn't let her go, especially after he had witnessed his ex-girlfriend flirting with another man.

He was angry.

He was angry that Vivi had been ungrateful to him and she had forgotten that he had given her a better job and a life. To hit the nail even deeper, she never loved him and dumped him like he meant nothing to her.

So when Sheryl had agreed to pay the ransom, adding to the fact that he would get his job back, he heaved a sigh of relief knowing that he could finally lead a comfortable life. It even crossed his mind that Vivi would regret breaking up with him if she learned about all this.

So, he had come up with an idea after Sheryl had agreed to pay the ransom.

He called his ex-girlfriend. When the call connected, he heard another man's voice from the other end of the line and it enraged him.

When she picked up the call, he told her that he would get his job back. Besides that, he said that his former boss was giving him a fifty million compensation for firing him without reason.

Fifty million dollars was a vast amount of money for Vivi.
